The two locked eyes, and time seemed to stand still.
"Bai Yan, get up for me."
An Yan turned her face away, flushed with anger, and she pushed Bai Yan.
"I’m not getting up!"
Bai Yan was very adamant.
If he got up, he would be beaten by An Yan.
Since he couldn’t hit An Yan nor scold her, the only way out was to maintain the status quo.
"You, how could you be ? Xiao Wan will have wild thoughts if she sees, you get up first."
An Yan said timidly, seemingly not truly angry.
"I can get up, but only if you don’t hit me, then I’ll get up."
"Bai Yan! You actually dare to threaten me! Fine, I’m calling for help now!"
"Wait, I’m getting up."
Irrational women, and beautiful women even more so.
"Consider yourself sensible!"
An Yan got up with a huff, stamped her foot, and turned her head away, her petulant charm like that of a little girl made Bai Yan stare in amazement.
The cool, gorgeous CEO’s display of adorable petulance was truly delightful to behold.
Bai Yan cleared his throat and casually asked, "Sister, when did you arrive in Mo City? If you had told me, I could have gone to pick you up."
"Why should I inform you? If I had, wouldn’t I have disturbed you? Besides... you don’t recognize me anymore."
An Yan rolled her eyes and shifted the topic, her face regaining its icy composure.
She sat down on the sofa and spoke seriously, "Why haven’t I seen Xiao Wan? You better not have bullied her while I wasn’t here."
"No, not at all. Xiao Wan fell asleep watching TV, I just sent her back to her room. I heard some noise downstairs, so I came down to check..."
"What? You just came down to check? I almost got killed by your ’checking’!"
Hearing Bai Yan’s words, An Yan felt a nameless rage boiling up inside her.
"That was a... misunderstanding. I thought there was a thief in the house, who asked you to come in without turning on the lights?"
Bai Yan muttered softly.
"I didn’t want to disturb Xiao Wan’s sleep!"
An Yan was almost fuming, her twenty-something years of cool elegance crumbling away whenever Bai Yan was involved.
"Okay, okay, don’t be angry anymore. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’ll go make you something to eat."
Bai Yan hurried to ease the situation. Indeed, he was at fault first; he had taken advantage of her, and bringing it up again might just completely offend An Yan.
He had long ago heard about An Yan from An Xiaowan’s mouth.
The famous CEO of Shen Zhou International Group, well-known as an ice queen.
"Make something to eat? You, huh? With the sky , are you planning to make me dinner?"
An Yan folded her arms, looking at Bai Yan skeptically.
Bai Yan smiled, "It’s almost dawn; how could it be dinner? I’m going to make you some breakfast."
"Fine, but before you cook, please bring my luggage in from outside."
An Yan nodded and pointed towards the door.
She had just gotten off the plane and felt a bit hungry after Bai Yan casually brought it up.
Normally, bodyguards would handle her luggage.
But with Bai Yan around, she might as well have him do it, to save her personal bodyguards the trouble.
Frankly, An Yan wanted to give Bai Yan a hard time; she was still fixated on the fact that he had taken advantage of her.
"Alrighty, I’ll go get your luggage for you right away."
He had just arrived at the villa’s doorway and saw a stretched, armored Lincoln parked there!
Goodness gracious, true to form for a female tycoon, she goes luxury with a Lincoln!
Bai Yan took the suitcases from the female bodyguards, brought them into the villa, and made his way to the kitchen like a veteran.
An Yan watched Bai Yan enter the kitchen, doubting in her heart,
"Can this kid even cook?"
An Yan murmured to herself.
She checked the time; it was nearly six in the morning.
She had to handle some affairs at the Shen Zhou Group Company branch in Mo City.
An Yan had originally come to Mo City to take An Xiaowan back.
But the moment she actually faced Bai Yan, she realized she wasn’t as calm as she had thought.
Despite not wanting to admit it, Bai Yan indeed held a very important place in An Yan’s heart.
An Yan bit her red lips, her pretty face filled with complex expressions.
When An Yan calmed her emotions, Bai Yan had just finished making breakfast.
Bai Yan brought the food to the dining room and looked up at An Yan with a smile, "Come have breakfast."
"It looks pretty good. Are we eating together?"
An Yan was very restrained, of good breeding, giving off an air of noble beauty when calm.
"No need, this is all specially made for you. I still need to make another breakfast for Xiao Wan and myself."
Bai Yan said with a smile, his eyes slightly squinted, his smile as warm as the morning sun.
"Mhm, then I’ll start."
An Yan gave a soft hum and casually picked up the chopsticks to try a bite.
Immediately after, An Yan was stunned. The delicious taste in her mouth brightened her eyes, "Bai Yan, did you make all this? It’s so delicious!"
"Of course, my cooking skills are at master level. If it’s good, eat more."
Bai Yan laughed heartily.
An Yan ate gracefully, and just watching her taste the food in small bites was a pleasure for Bai Yan.
